Did the FBI find photographs of Trump in Epstein’s files?
The answer was not no.
We’re fighting for health care that Americans deserve and Republicans are cutting.
Don’t you want us to do well in that fight? I think so.
Stand strong.
Reposted bySenator Sheldon Whitehouse
Washington Republicans continue to vote down a budget bill that keeps the government open AND funds health care. Why?
I asked MAGA Bondi the “what became of the money” and the “did he declare it” questions, and she couldn’t/wouldn't answer.
Simple fact questions, protected by no privilege. Smells like another cover-up.

Listen to what this Republican mother had to say to Speaker Johnson this morning.
If he's not willing to listen to us, I hope he'll listen to the American people. Families are hurting, and Republicans have the power to put a stop to it. We're at the table. We're waiting.
BTW, EcoRI has a great, free newsletter with more stories like this.

On top of the “direct subsidies” is the “free-to-pollute” subsidy, violating market economics with the biggest subsidy of all: $700 billion/year.

Why did Republicans gut health care? To fund tax breaks for billionaires.
Why’d they gut child nutrition benefits? Tax breaks for billionaires.
Why’d they add $30 TRILLION to the debt? Tax breaks for billionaires!!!
They’re fighting for billionaires. We’re fighting for YOU.
Ten years, more than ten-tupled.

Did the FBI find photos of Trump with young women in Epstein’s files?
AG Bondi: *deflects*
Yes or no?
AG Bondi: *crickets*

Banning "climate change" doesn't mean it's not real.
Republicans claim this isn’t their shutdown. Yet, they don’t even show up for work.
Reposted bySenator Sheldon Whitehouse
The government is shut down because Trump and the Republicans are hellbent on taking health care away from you.
And they won’t even come to the table to talk to us about it.
This is not about politics. It's about people.
Let’s break it down:
So, interesting side-by-side of one allegedly and one actually lying FBI Director, happening in real time.
She could’ve said, yes, DOJ worked with Patel to publicly release his grand jury transcript, as he testified — but she didn’t.
Why not? Because there obviously is no publicly released transcript of Patel grand jury testimony.
She could’ve said, yes, DOJ had sealed Patel’s grand jury testimony, as he testified — but she didn’t.
Why not? Likely because it wasn’t sealed. As judge said on the record, nothing prevented Patel from disclosing his grand jury testimony.
As FBI Dir Comey comes to answer charges of lying to Congress, MAGA Bondi fails to cover FBI Dir Patel’s lies to Congress.
